I went to Bergen in 2009 and i was charmed by this beautiful town. Bergen is the Norway’s second largest city and is located in the south west of the country. Founded more than 900 years ago, Bergen has roots to the Viking Age. The city is surrounded by seven mountains and is a gateway to the fjords (fjord is a long,narrow,deepinlet of theseabetweensteepslopes).

Bergen is one of the most charming and warm city i have ever been. I loved the colorful wooden houses, the narrow streets and the nature around the town. It is a  delightful and welcoming city despite the bad weather! It rains a lot, that’s why the symbol of the city is the umbrella! My mother took these photos.
